Now
all this work with gadgets requires certain specialized tools, which
we have gathered over time, and a place to utilize them. We've also
got this covered. N used to work in the basement which was fine
because there is plenty of space and he could make a mess of things
while he worked, and believe you me, he did a good job of making a
mess of things. There were wires and electronic parts everywhere, and
needless to say it was a bit out of control, even by my standards,
which are extremely low. I don't think his uncle, the Amazing PR Man, would approve.
The
basement is not the most pleasant environment, however, because it's
dark, damp, and dank. The cat litter is down there, and it's cold.
So, mom decided to relocate his workspace upstairs in his room. It
actually works out beautifully because his room is big, perhaps too
big for just one person. He used to share it with his sister before
she hit puberty and needed her own space, which I totally dig. I had
fully planned on moving him to the other spare bedroom and then made
old room into a guest room with two beds. This plan lagged for a few
years, and at some point I think he lost a bit of enthusiasm over
changing over. Then mom came up with the brilliant idea of making his
room into a bedroom/workroom. It also houses the electric drum set,
which sort of adds to the coolness.
His
new bench space is a work in progress but so far it's pretty cool.
Since he does mainly electronic/drone stuff all he really needs are
some wire cutting/splicing tools and a soldering iron. If he needs to
do sanding or Dremel work he can go into the basement, but most of
the work is done in his room. I think it's a pretty cool setup, and
it gets him out of the moldy basement. Most importantly, he can sneak
in some work time while we're all asleep if he needs to.
Until
the next time, thanks for reading, and thanks to betsy bensen for the pic.
